Creating Customers on the move
The advent of mobile commerce (m-commerce) has be-
gun to create significant changes in the way consumers
make purchasing decisions. The introduction of online
shopping first began to draw customers away from brick-
and-mortar retailers, changing the location of where they
made their purchases. The use of mobile devices has ex-
panded the location of purchase decisions even further,
so now consumers can make purchases from almost any-
where, so long as they have a mobile device with them. It
also has leveled the playing field for consumers in many
cases, as it allows them to comparison shop on prices of
products that they might find in stores.
In 2009, the mobile commerce market generated
$18.3 billion in total revenue. By 2015 it’s projected to
reach over $119 billion. When it comes to m-commerce,
eBay has jumped in with both feet. It is estimated to hold
about 3.3 percent of m-commerce, compared to online
retailer Amazon’s 1.5 percent. It also was estimated to sell
$1.5 billion in goods via m-commerce in 2010, compared
to $600 million in 2009. eBay launched its first mobile ap-
plication for the iPhone in July 2008 and has since pro-
duced 14 apps, including eBay Selling, StubHub, Deals,
and Fashion. eBay’s core iPhone application has been
downloaded 14 million times, and its entire stable of apps
has seen over 30 million downloads worldwide. Purchases
range from clothing and accessories to sporting event and
concert tickets, computers and technology gadgets, col-
lectables, and even luxury automobiles. Research indicates
that more than half of regular m-commerce purchasers are
comfortable spending over $100 on a mobile purchase,
and 14 percent are willing to spend over $1,000.
eBay has been quick to embrace the trend toward
comparison shopping, as potential buyers compare in-
store prices online with those offered by other retailers. In
June 2010, eBay purchased RedLaser, a mobile app that
uses the cell phone camera to identify a product’s bar code
and locate that product within eBay’s system.
If a buyer is searching for a certain designer jacket, for
example, he could compare prices between eBay’s auc-
tions, flat-priced buy-it-now options, and eBay’s Fashion
Vault, which offers limited-time deep discounts on select
high-end merchandise.
But while eBay has excelled in m-commerce so far, its
ability to fully capitalize on this growth potential depends
on how it is able to influence consumer purchasing deci-
sions. Merely allowing consumers to search for items, com-
pare prices, and then make a purchase isn’t enough. As
eBay Vice President of mobile platforms Steve Yankovich
says, “We want consumers to engage when they don’t
have a purchase in mind.”
The combination of apps with mobile devices en-
ables browsing and purchasing virtually anywhere at any
time, especially during downtime—say when the poten-
tial buyer is getting a haircut or waiting in line at the cof-
fee shop. By enabling buyers more opportunities to shop
and make purchases, eBay is hoping to spark purchases
based on the buyer’s immediate situation. The eBay
Fashion app is designed to inspire browsing and experi-
mentation, offering features such as a clothing-focused
search function, a virtual closet to save various finds, and
a mix-and-match feature that allows users to pair up ar-
ticles of clothing with various accessories. Users can even
take a picture of themselves using the phone camera and
the Fashion app will superimpose the outfits they cre-
ate over their figure, allowing shoppers to digitally “try
on” the looks. So if a purchaser saw a dress she liked at
a party, she could “try it on” and match it up with acces-
sories in her wardrobe. eBay is planning to release even
more apps like eBay Fashion, targeting key eBay shop-
ping demographics such as car enthusiasts and home-
and-garden enthusiasts.
Early trends suggest that shoppers are responding to
eBay’s efforts as well. As eBay has continued to develop the
offerings of the eBay Fashion app, average user browsing

time on the app has increased by 40 percent since its
original release and mobile fashion sales tripled over the
past year. If nothing else, the new trends in m-commerce
move very quickly, and eBay must continue to innovate if it
wants to stay ahead of the game. Says Yankovich, “Nobody
knows what’s going to happen in mobile. We need to be
ready to spin on a dime.”
